Google has announced an update to Google Assistant that will see the service displaying a snapshot of users’ agendas.
The visual overview can be accessed by a new button that appears in the Google Assistant app for Android. On iOS devices, the new snapshot tool will appear automatically. Google says the snapshot will focus on things such as travel times for meetings and appointments, though it will also offer information on agenda items, reminders, reservations, stock portfolios, bills, packages, and suggested actions.
Google plans to add more useful features to snapshot over time, such as notes and lists, parking reminders, and podcast recommendations. Google Assistant may also send notifications to ensure people don’t miss future events.
Google Assistant with the new visual snapshot feature is rolling out to Android and iOS devices this week.
